Two very early Beach Boys concert posters from Southern California, one from before they were known and the other from after they had achieved their first Top 10 hit (“Surfin’ USA”). In both cases the Beach Boys weren’t big enough to carry or headline the concert, so they’re joined by many other acts on the posters, such as up-and-comer Marvin Gaye! Enthusiastically discussed by collector Pete Howard of PosterCentral.com (phone 805-540-0020, email pete@postercentral.com).
